Howard Stern's longtime sidekick Robin Quivers revealed on his SiriusXM radio show this morning that she's been battling cancer, according to THR.
Quivers had been absent from the show for a year. She said her doctors say the chemotherapy and other procedures were a success because she is currently cancer free.
In May of 2012, she said she would be undergoing "a procedure" to remove a tumor on her bladder, NBC News reported.
During his first show without her, Stern said, "Doing a show without Robin is like cutting off my left arm. Or my right arm. Or maybe both."
"She was my backbone, you understand," Stern said. "Where I would lose courage, Robin always had the courage. She always is the brave one. Always the brave one with me. I could go to her, and I could always rely on her."
Stern has said multiple times that he would not continue the show without Quivers.
